What is Fizz

Fizz is the hottest Gen Z social platform in the world. Having started as America’s biggest college social app, Fizz now enables Gen Z globally to connect around shared experiences and identities. College Fizz communities feature a private, moderated feed of posts from verified students, making it the most entertaining and authentic way to experience student life.

Our newest product, Global Fizz, brings together Gen Z both domestically and internationally, providing a space to connect around the 99% of life not represented on entertainment platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Fizz is on a mission to bring social back to social media.

What We've Done

We first launched Fizz at Stanford in July 2021 and have since seen >95% of undergraduates join the app, half of whom use Fizz every day. Since raising a $25M Series B in July 2023, we have established ourselves as the dominant social app across 700+ colleges, begun generating revenue through advertising, and started expanding beyond college communities.

Most recently, Fizz reached #1 overall on the App Store charts in Saudi Arabia.

Where We're Going

We have three primary goals for 2026:

  • Continue expanding across the entire U.S. college market

  • Accelerate revenue growth through our advertising business

  • Rapidly expand beyond college students, both domestically and internationally

  • Hit and exceed revenue targets with a focus on repeatable deal flow

  • Build and grow relationships with agency and brand stakeholders

  • Collaborate cross-functionally on proposals, pricing, and campaign strategy

  • Maintain CRM hygiene and provide accurate forecasting

  • Stay current on digital media trends and evolving advertiser needs

  • Represent Fizz in market through client meetings and industry events
